Iran endorses nuclear EMP attack on United States

From: washingtonexaminer.com, by: Paul Bedard, on March 19, 2015, see the article HERE.

My friends, some of you may think of me as a “chicken little” constantly warning of a falling sky, so be it. But you must admit that the information presented herein is too serious to be ignored. These events have occurred within the past few months and serve as warnings that must be considered and evaluated. Iran (and North Korea) have proven that they are our enemies and both have stated that the destruction of our United States is one of their goals. I suggest that ignoring a publically stated threat is foolhardy and can have catastrophic results. Do not shrug this off as bluster, it is entirely possible and we should be prepared. And by the way, the bold emphasis in the following articles is mine. Garnet92.

The nutcases in charge of Iran (and Obama’s good buddies)

Suspected for years of plotting to dismantle the U.S. electric grid, American officials have confirmed that Iranian military brass have endorsed a nuclear electromagnetic pulse explosion that would attack the country’s power system.

American defense experts made the discovery while translating a secret Iranian military handbook, raising new concerns about Tehran’s recent nuclear talks with the administration.

The issue of a nuclear EMP attack was raised in the final hours of this week’s elections in Israel when U.S. authority Peter Vincent Pry penned a column for Arutz Sheva warning of Iran’s threat to free nations.

“Iranian military documents describe such a scenario — including a recently translated Iranian military textbook that endorses nuclear EMP attack against the United States,” he wrote.

A knowledgable source said that the textbook discusses an EMP attack on America in 20 different places.

Arizona Republican Rep. Trent Franks, who is leading an effort to protect the U.S. electric grid from an EMP attack, has recently made similar claims based on the document translated by military authorities.

Once sneered at by critics, recent moves by Iran and North Korea have given credibility to the potential EMP threat from an atmospheric nuclear explosion over the U.S.

Pry has suggested ways for Iran to deliver a nuclear attack: by ship launched off the East Coast, a missile or via satellite.

Either way the result could be destruction of all or part of the U.S. electric grid, robbing the public of power, computers, water and communications for potentially a year.

Frank Gaffney, founder and president of the Center for Security Policy, said the threat to the grid can also come from solar activity.

He has been pushing Washington and state governments to take the relatively inexpensive move to protect the electric grid, though his concern is from a nuclear attack by Iran or North Korea.

“It is increasingly frightening,” he said. “We have to get started on this.”

He noted that Iran’s top military leader recently announced that he was ready for war with the U.S.

“We are ready for the decisive battle against the U.S. and the Zionist regime,” Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff General Hassan Firouzabadi told Iran’s Fars News Agency in 2014.

The following is excerpted from Pry’s column that discusses an Iran EMP attack:

One nuclear warhead detonated at high-altitude over the United States would blackout the national electric grid and other life sustaining critical infrastructures for months or years by means of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). A nationwide blackout lasting one year, according to the Congressional EMP Commission, could cause chaos and starvation that leaves 90 percent of Americans dead.

Iranian military documents describe such a scenario–including a recently translated Iranian military textbook that endorses nuclear EMP attack against the United States.

Thus, Iran with a small number of nuclear missiles can by EMP attack threaten the existence of modernity and be the death knell for Western principles of international law, humanism and freedom. For the first time in history, a failed state like Iran could destroy the most successful societies on Earth and convert an evolving benign world order into world chaos.

Iran To Send Ships To Atlantic, Off US Coast: Nuclear EMP Threat Develops

The following related article was published on January 3, 2015

National security experts have expressed alarm over the announcement by Iran that it will position its warships off the coast of the United States, from where they could launch a nuclear warhead to explode at high altitude to create an electromagnetic pulse (EMP).

That could knock the American electrical grid out of commission, disrupting supplies of energy, food, communications, fuel and more for a long period.

And to make matters worse, the device could be launched by a commercial vessel.

These experts agree that there would be no warning and that the U.S. missile defense system would not be able to respond in time to prevent the high altitude nuclear explosion.

They also believe that if such a missile were launched, it would not be from an Iranian warship but from a commercial vessel sailing along the East Coast or in the Gulf of Mexico.

“It shows they could put a weapon on a boat or freighter, and if Iran has ballistic missiles it could put it anywhere on the U.S. coast,” said John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and currently a senior fellow at the Washington-based American Enterprise Institute.

I’m not going to launch into another tirade about the threat of an EMP, if you aren’t convinced by now that such an event is possible, just go on watching American Idol or Dancing With the Stars, blissfully unaware of how your world might change – at any time.

We should be contacting our representatives in Congress and demanding that our electrical grid be protected. If nothing else, it’s cheap insurance.

Actually a tiny nuclear-enhanced device that would limit the impact to perhaps a twenty-mile radius around D.C. might not be so bad. Frankly, if an EMP attack must be sustained, please let it be our nation’s capital in the crosshairs.

We might be better to start again with a “clean” slate, with Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, etc. all away in their home states, and maybe only Obama, Biden, Kerry, Pelosi, and Reid remaining in D.C.

Sometimes, I get the feeling that all this is EXACTLY what the obomination wants to occur. To anyone with eyes and ears, it’s perfectly clear that King Putz has NO love for America, its heritage, its allies, or its own people.

Obama hs already tried to Nuke/EMP us twice. He WILL allow this to happen.
